“Physician, heal thyself.” FRANK KNAPP—Has made a splendid President of Congress. Will go to Colgate three years and after that study medicine, though his preference always has been for German and Nellie B. “Oh, sweet Marguerite.” HAROLD LAUDER—Has been reasonably good in school the past four years, but in the future (?) “Of all studies, study your present condition.” CARLETON MARINUS—Resplendent in the glory of fifth honor Marinus will speak at Commencement. He intends to enter Syracuse in the Fall and make a future worthy to be remembered. “A lion among ladies is a most dreadful thing.” HARRY MERRILL—Merrill is a Wilkes-Barre importation. Made a name for himself at the start by attracting the Panorama’s assistant news editor’s attention and getting roasted in the afore-named publication. Will enter Cornell for architectural course and cultivate his designing eye, (for girls). “A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds.” RALPH MOULTHROP—Moulthrop also favors Cornell, though he realizes Syracuse offers golden opportunities. Oh! these Binghamton boys at a co-ed college! “What a singular destiny is that of this remarkable man.” CHARLES RECTOR—Rector has pulled off sixth honor. Has been secretary of Congress and star of German class. He expects to go to Syracuse and after sufficient preparation (travel, study, etc.,) he has the daring ambition to teach German in Binghamton Central High School! “The best security on earth is earth itself.” CLAY SMITH—Smith has made a reputation for himself as a history shark. It inspires respect and admiration, when We learn that he has taken every history which the school affords. “I am not in the roll of common men.” EDWIN TRUESDELL—Although he has not graduated, Truesdell has already been a year at Cornell as he distinguished himself by winning the 1910 scholarship. He will return to Cornell in the Fall to continue his electrical studies. 13

“Oh that this too, too solid flesh would melt.” FRANK ENGELBERT—Engelbert for the past two years has been a substantial aid to our football team as right guard and tackle. His presence lends dignity to every group of which he is a member. “By saying nothing you may pass for wise.” CURTIS FLETCHER—Fletcher’s life through High School well illustrates the above quotation. Still believing in this motto, that silence is wisdom, he is very uncommunicative as to his future. “He wears the rose of youth upon his cheek.” CHARLES GREENE-—Pink cheeked and guileless, Greene has made his gentle way through school. Is fond of dancing and mathematics—future uncertain. “Being nimble footed he hath outrun us.” FLOYD HAYNES—Not only in athletics but in soaring plans for the future, Hanes has excelled. He expects to go West and enter the Pacific College of Osteopathy. “To be rather than to appear.” ERWIN HYDE—Hyde has shone forth occasionally on committees, etc., but otherwise has modestly remained in the background. A course in engineering at Cornell will finish his preparation for later life. “Beware of two black eyes.” LELAND INSCHO—Now, Leland’s eyes haven’t a reputation for being dangerous—but—well they are black—and—it is always well to be careful. He is rather at a loss about his future and has been unable to make definite plans as yet. “And still the wonder grew and grew, That one small head could carry all he knew.” PAUL JENKINS—-The above quotation explains itself when we state that for the past term, Jenkins has been assistant business manager of the Panorama. In the fall he will enter Yale. “Forests have fields, and fields have eyes.” JOHN KENYON—One High School’s best basket ball player, Kenyon will enter the Baltimore school of Forestry. His own sensitive nature desires to protect the tender things of nature—enough said. 12

“What is a man’s heart given him for, if not to choose.’’ RAYMOND VOGELIN—Voegelin has ever been in great favor among the ladies. Otherwise he has not been prominent in High School. He is entirely satisfied with his present condition—for which We can not blame him—and has no definite plans for the future. “Seek honor first and pleasure lies behind.” LAWRENCE WAITE—Though Lawrence has been in B. C. H. S. for only two years, he has become a power in the school. He has been news editor of the Panorama, president of Congress, and has captured an honor. As editor-in-chief of the Panorama, he has edited “the best chool paper on the market;’’ As chief debater in the Elmira debate, he lost the debate only so far as the decision went. At odd intervals he has served on multitudinous committees. He will deliver a declamation class day and will make the grand finale for his career in the High School by issuing the “biggest and best annual ever!’’ Plans for the future include college, and eventually he will become a lawyer. “Even our sports are dangerous.” READ BROWN—Even as charity covereth a multitude of sins, Read’s plans cover a large area. After two years at Wesleyan, he will further his education by travel and finish at Yale with a course on forestry. He has been secretary and student member of the athletic council and has ruled haughtily the Senior Class. As class day speaker, he will announce words of wisdom to the lower grades. “Arise with the larks—avoid them in the evening.” ORVAL WALES—Wales also has had a checkered career. He was the first President of the eminent Senior class and has been manager of our football team. Expects to attend University of Pennsylvania and is generally conceded to be the masculine beauty of the school. “ ’Tis pleasant sure, to see one’s name in print.” OLIVE AYERS—Olive was very timid in answering questions about future plans. Being encouraged by the assurance that she would not be ‘roasted’, she overcame her diffidence and stated her intention of teaching, after a two years’ course at Oneonta Normal—unless—well, unless she changed her mind. 14
